The master-planned, 531-acre industrial park near the intersection of Fulghum Road ​​could bring 9 million square feet of new distribution and e-commerce fulfillment centers to the South Dallas inland port.

Port Logistics Realty, a newly formed development and long-term ownership group, plans to develop a new logistics park named Southport Logistics Park in South Dallas along Interstate 45,

The master-planned, 531-acre industrial park near the intersection of Fulghum Road could bring 9 million square feet of new distribution and e-commerce fulfillment centers to the South Dallas inland port.

"The economic momentum of North Texas, coupled with the supply chain demands being placed upon South Dallas, makes this project very exciting for Port Logistics Realty," Robert Huthnance Jr., who was recently named president of Port Logistics Realty, said in a written statement.

The initial phase of Southport Logistics Park includes the development of two buildings totaling 1.5 million square feet of industrial space as well as the infrastructure -- such as a water tower and installing and upgrading roadways to support heavy hauls -- to support the park.

"We are seeing an increasing number of corporate and e-commerce users moving to the southern sector of Dallas, and this location is perfectly suited for these kinds of tenants due to its proximity to Union Pacific, FedEx and the highway network," said Jones, a first vice president at the real estate firm's Dallas office.
